If in doubt, photograph what's right in front of you

When I walk I tend to look up, especially when walking round cities. Most of the beauty is up. Above the normal line of sight. If in doubt, look up. If nothing else, you will get a different perspective to everyone else. And if that fails, look down. If nothing else...

I look at details, not landscapes. I don't see the bigger picture, I see the smaller one. Photograph the obvious; what;'s right in front of you because tomorrow it'll be gone for ever. And no one will have recorded it.

I'm not saying that these pictures reflect that philosophy, but hey...
